Quick call with old man Sinjin this arvo:

"So what's on today?"

"Watching the replay without the defibrillator..........been replaced by a bottle of Laphroaig"

"Love your work dad"
Been a while since a Sinjin Snr update, raised an excellent point today.

"Well Sinjin it was a bit disappointing we didn't get get the Laphroaigs however there are very good signs, next year we win those games by 3-4 goals. Gibbs needs to ask himself where he wants to play because the Crows are going no where fast. If he sticks in the navy he'll be playing on the winning side the next time. If he really needs to go home so be it but it's foolish to do it for a flag in his career timeframe.

Also Sinjin and ******* listen up C Curnow will have a monster soon, a 5 goal 20 possession game that will launch him! I saw it today, we also really missed His brother, when I see him on the outs I have the same dread as if I see Murphy, Gibbs, or Cripps out, he's integral"

My old man is on the ball.

I am starting to wonder about our ruck stocks and now that Phillips is done for this season what happens next year if Casboult leaves and.....(perish the thought)........Kreuzer gets injured...........not much left is there..........if SOS can trade for Kelly,Hopper and Balic (somehow) then adding Hayes with our first pick could be the go. Before everyone shouts too early..........he can play forward and we do need another guy to take Levis`spot. Hopefully Harry is that guy by seasons`end but if he isn`t we will need to try to get Pruess or someone else from another club.....but???
Next year phillips wont be done for the season though, will he? FFS how many rucks do you want? List structure demands that you minimise the number if "one position players"

Found out a little bit more on the Gibbs deal.

Gibbs to Adelaide
Adelaide give 2 picks to Hawthorne
Sicily to us and ??

Also heard Kelly to Blues is happening in a 3 way deal.

Silicy to us and Hawthorn's 2018 and 2019 first round picks.

Silicy has minimal value.

Nah, but seriously, Hawthorn would have to be coughing up something significant our way.

Not disputing the Rumour and I get the Sicily connection but I don't really see Hawthorn as a logical 3rd Party in any deal. They are also in full rebuild mode (or will be come October).

So the age profile of any established player of theirs we would want, they will need to keep. The drafts picks we would want, they also need to stockpile, especially after the St Kilda mess.

Plus, if we really want Sicily, there are plenty of ways to get him without Compromising on our return from Gibbs.

Why do hawthorn get the picks when we lose Gibbs. Sounds ridiculous. I'd take Sicily as a DFA only.

A couple of so called experts today in the Carlton members were saying
If Kelly leaves it will be to us
Hopper is a near certainty
We are chasing Anthony Miles from Richmond and have put an offer to him (second time I've heard this)

No idea how reliable they are

Lol miles.... Interesting though Castagna was also mentioned

You may not like all of them, but sure there are 2 that would be better value than Tippett
could save ourselves a pick and develop rowe once he recovers, with the emergence of jones and silvagni, a.
blicavs has gone downhill and might be cheap to pick up. not sure what he is capable of resting forward. certainly fits the kreuzer mold, but with even better endurance but perhaps less footy smarts... not quite as skilled in clearance work once it hits the deck in close.
gc's brooksby is behind both witts and nicholls now.
preuss - can't get a game behind majak, but a better player. teams will be all up in his ears, we should be one of them. only just turned 22.

Fail to see how that Gibbs deal helps us in any way, shape or form.

It can't be real. As if we're going to let go of one of our best players for a hick like Sicily and some unknown.

If we were still in the Malthouse days I could see this type of deal happening but no chance now.
